• Photo day
  • Quite a photo. Sailing is difficult yet alive and well there.
  • Sure can keep an eye on the mooring there!
  • Across the Channel
  • Race to Alaska...
    • That race is an intriguing idea. Hard to guess what/who will win.
      • If the wind doesn't blow Karl has a good chance....did you see the Larry Elison challenge?
  • Well I tried to launch the new woody today
    • Todd's the expert here on woodies. Many of them leak like spaghetti colanders here at launch.
      • If the boat has been out of water for a while....
        • Another thing....
          • Thanks, Todd. Is my filling it with water doing anything?
            • It will help, but don't put too much in...
              • Launch attempt #2 tonight
                • How did it go?
                  • Good. She's at my dock with a 110ac pump
                    • Glad it went well..
                      • I'm sure I'll enjoy this but ask me again after a winter of caulking, sanding, and varnishing
                        • That's only enough varnishing to keep you sane.
